NOTES AND COMMENTS.
The Ontario department of agriculture
has sent out oiranlare to cheese makers
lnstruoting them in two or three ways
how to use up all their milk without
working on Sunday. The oheede mak-
ers claimed that the new Lord's Day
Act, in oompelling them to quit work on
Sunday would entail a great financial
loss. The department claims they can
both observe the Sabbath and avoid lose.
The farmer, if he oniy knew it, is a
little nearer heaven than anyone else on
earth. He is certain of 3 egnare meals a
day and is the only man who can fence
himself in and live in spite of
the rest of mankind. A few cattle and
sheep and fowl provide him with food
and clothing, while his fields yield him
flour and a source of revenue. So gen.
crows are these provisions and so com-
mon, that hardly one farmer in ten takes
an account of them although the ordin-
ary business man thinks_ he has done welt
when he reaches the end of a year and
finds that he has a Little more than
made ends meet,
There is no apparent reason why there
should be Dominion elections either this
year or next; and we are sure that the
public would be very well content to
have the present Parliament live out its
fall term of five years. The power to
consult the people without delay, in
great emergencies, is a precious consti-
tutional right which is not to be fore-
gone; but with these exceptions it would
be to the country's advantage i1 our Gov-
ernments, Local and Federal, would fil_
out the terms for which they were elect.
ed, and then go to the electors for
judgment on their own record. Sadden
dissolutions and short campaigns do not
permit the thorough discussion of public
affairs which [should precede the casting
of the ballots.-Winnireg Free Press.
A writer in The Canadian Courier
questions whether there is any basis for
the common belief that the public men
of the confederation era outranked those
of the present day in charaoter and abil-
ity, "Sir John Macdonald," says this
writer, "was an astute politician and a
successful leader; bat was he any better
on these lines than Sir Wilfrid Laurier?
Sir John was a nation -builder, and he
Dame at an opportune moment. Sir
Wilfrid Laurier is a nation -cementer,
nud his coming was quite as opportune.
Sir Charles Tapper was another of the
giants that lived in those days.' He
was and is a man of unlimited pluck, of
tremendous energy, of mighty driving -
power; but we have seen him in action
and we have measured him with men of
later day, and it would be the purest
hypoorisy to pretend that we think him
far superior to these men who overcame
him at his lifelong game. Some of the
lesser 'giants' we knew, too; as, for
instance, Hon. Wm. McDougall, Sir
Hector Langevin, Hon, Peter Mitchell.
Were they not at least quite as human
as the men who have succeeded them?
The troth is that we have always had
some genuinely big men in Canada; and
that any glance back over a long period
seems to show a great many more of
them than arca visible in the contempor-
ary field at any given moment. But it
is doubtful whether we had more big
man at Confederation than we have
today."

CANADA AND THE UNITED
STATES.
[Philadelphia Ledger,)
If it were possible to express within a
piaglo phrase the thought of the average
citizen of the United States concerning
our great Canadian neighbor, it would
imply a certain aneount of ignorance and
indifference. There has not been anyone
in this country within more than a gener-
ation who seriously retained the notion
that need to be prevalent that Canada's
"manifest destiny" was absorptiou into
the United States, The feeling that, at
any rate, Canada was economically de-
pendent upon ns has been less easy to
dispel, and it is only within comparative-
ly recent times that the consciousness
has been absorbed by the mass of the
American people that a great community
was growing up beside us, not wholly
indifferent yet fully able to get along
without help from us.
Perhaps the one fact that has helped
to drive this fact home is the realization
that Canada is no longer looking to
Washington for reciprocity and the next
stage in the process will be the further
education of the American people. They
will have to learn to appreciate the mag-
nitude of the opportunity that was lost
in the past when the door for oloser com-
mercial relations was deliberately oloeed
by their representatives, and they will
also come to realize that if there are to
be any more intimate exchanges in the
future the overtures are just as likely to
come from this side of the border as from
the other. Wise Canadian statesmen
realize juin as perfectly as do our own
that the destinies of the two English-
speaking people who occupy the greater
part of the North American continent
are so closely related that it is of the ut-
most consequence that misunderstand-
ings and friction shall not arise.
Factory Wage and Product.
Mr. Archibald Blue, chief of the Sta-
tistical Bureau, recently issued the final
bulletin dealing with the regent census
of Canadian manufacturers, It gives
the number of wage-earners in and
amount paid for salaries to all classes in
manufacturing establishments of Cana-
da, in the calender years 1900 and 1905,
as shown by the census of 1901 and 1900.
In the tabulated statements issued em-
ployes and wages are given only where
there are three or more works of each
kind of industries. Where there are
less than three figures they are grouped
under the head of all other industries.
The number of employes includes offi-
cers, clerks, workers, etc., who are paid
salaries or wages for service. In the
five years the number of employes in-
creased by 47,452, the amount of wages
by $51,145,140, and the average wage
per employe by 490.74. Employes in-
creased in the five years by 12 per cent.,
total wages by 45 per cent., and average
wage per employe by 27 per cent. The
rains of product per employe in the
year 1900 was $1,398, and in 1905 it was
$1,832, being an inceease ief $434, or 31
per cent. For 1890 the average wage
per employe was less than in 1905 by
$128 66, and the average product less
4477.
The total number of wage-earners in
1900 was 344,035, and they earned in
salaries and wages 4113,249,350, In 1905
the number of wage-earners had increas-
ed to 391,487 and their salaries and wages
to 4164,394,490.
THE WINGUAM TIMES, JULY 25, 1907
Unfinished Hogs.
The Wm Davies Pork Packing Co. halt
issued the following letter to shippers
and drovers. We publish it ou request
in the hope that it will infinenoe hog
raisers to bring to market only such a3
is fully prepared:
Dear Sirs, -There are already sive of
the marketing of light unfinished hop.
We want you to take this question np
right away with your drovers to be dealt
with by yon and by them in a firm way
when buying bogs.
A dropping market, some scarcity of
coarse grains, and a high price for the
same, will all tend to the marketing of
unfinished hogs. For these, as we have
often explained to you, there is no mar-
ket and they are handled ata heavy loss.
We have made up one miud that the
farmere must hear this loss or the dro-
ver, if he fails to refuse to take this stuff
off the farmer's hence.
To this end, will you please watch
carefully the sorting of every deck of
hogs, Begin with a cut of 50 per cent.
and if this does not stop them raise it to
41 per cwt.
At wnatever cost, we must stop the
marketing of this nrfiniehed stuff.
For The Warm Weather.
Do not be afraid of the night air in
your sleeping rooms; night air is all the
air one can get a'ter dusk until dawn,
and should be admitted freely. The
bed should not stand directly in a
draught, nor should the wind be allow-
ed to blow but the window should be
left open, and the doors should not be
shut. Do not negleot to sun and air the
bedding often and do not be in a hurry
to make np the beds of a morning.
Teach your family to throw back the
covers and shake the pillows, opening
doors and windows as practicable, and
in this way allow the escape of as much
of the impure air es possible. A good
plan is to keep a set of night clothes to
be used In the bed, taking off everything
worn during the day, and hanging over
chairs or rods to thoroughly air and dry
during the night.
If possible to do so and with most of
ns it can be done, take at least a sponge
bath or a 'rub down' with a towel every
night before going to bed. Onoe having
established this habit it will be hard to
break off.

CATARRH CAN BE CURED.
Kill the Germ by Breathing
Hy -o -mei. Gives Quick Relief.
Many,:people who have suffered with
catarrh for years naturally think they
cannot be cured, and become discour-
aged.
The reason they have failed of ours
is because they have not treated the
disease with the local remedy. Hy -o -
mei, which is breathed through a neat
pocket inhaler so that its healing medi-
cated air reaches the most remote air -
cells, kills all catarrh germs and restores
the mucous membrane of the nose,
throat and lungs to a healthy condition.
Catarrh is really a local disease and to
cure it, it must be treated by a remedy
wbieh reaches every spot in the nose and
throat where the disease germs lodge.
Heeo-mei does this and gives relief from
the first day's use.
A complete Hiecemei outfit coats but
$1.00 and Walton McKibbon gives a
guarantee with every package to refund
the money unless it cures.
Dog Hated Babies.
I owned a blank and tan terrier from
1874 to 1881. I received him when quite
a poppy, and he was with me through
part of my university and the whole of
my seminary terms. Ia 1880 I martial
and in 1881 my firet child was born. The
first time she was brought down into
the sitting -room, I, like a proud father,
took the little one in meearms. TI e Po;
came in and expressed his jealousy by
a series of growls and an attempt to
get at;the child by jumping. I gave him
a hint with my foot and he walked out
of the house. We saw nothing of him
for over three months. One day while
walking near the outer part of the town
we saw old Croaker, as we called
him. He took no notice of us, but
walked straight to a place where there
was a trim -looking garden and a neat -
looking house. Upon inquiry we found
that it was inhabited by two elderly
spinster sisters. The dog had gone to
to them and could not be induced to
leave. He was determined to avoid a
similar danger in the future -Chicago
Tribune.
THE LOSER.
[Exchange]
Yon want to marry Jennie, Jim?
Oh, well, I knew 'twould come,
She loves you? Well if that's the case,
I wouldn't raise a thumb
To try and atop the weddin', Jim,
An' keep you two apart,
But when you take her, Jim, I fear
You'll break an old man's heart.
That little girl is all I've got,
She's all I live for, boy;
Still, I can't kick -she's give me now
'Most twenty year's of joy.
Yon see, we lost her mother, Jim,
When Jen was ten years old;
That baby was my all in all,
She's been as good as gold.
I know Missouri's not so far,
I know that now an' then
I'll have a chance to visit yon
An' see my little Jen.
Oh yes, I know you'll care for her,
An' treat my baby fine;
But, Jim, things won't he just the same --
She'll be all yours, not mine.
Go on an' take her, Jim, my boy,
I knew'twould come some day;
The very best of friends must part,
It's &Nays been that way.
Ezctae me if my eyes are moist,
Those tears Were bound to start;
It's human nature, Jim, not yon,
That's burstin' say old heart,

Careful observation, extending over a
period Of tort* -two years and supple-
mented by thousands of interviews
with storekeepers, hairdressers, mo-

THE WOMAN AT HOME.
Try washing the hands in mustard
water to remove nnpleaaant odors, such
as onions or fish.
When the hands are sore and blistered
waste them in fresh buttermilk and al-
low it to dry on the skin, as it aids in
whitening it,
A good idea is to keep a wet sponge
in the cabinet with, ivory curios or
carvings. It will provide moisture that
prevents oraoking from heat.
A wooden spoon should be dipped in
boiling water immediately before using.
This will preveat disooloration and ab-
sorbing of fiavore.
Chemists claim that it takes more
than twice as much sager to sweeten
preserves, sauces, eta., if put in when
they begin to cook as it does to sweeten
after the fruit is cooked.
To clean a carpet without taking it
up nee a cup half full of cornmeal
mixed with salt and sweep well. Then
use ox gall or ammonia. Both are good
things to make the carpet as bright as
new.
As a gaard against accident, when a
valuable vase is filled with fingers, it
should first be filled with sand, over
which the water should be paned. This'
will keep the vase from toppling over, by
adding to its weight.
When ante are troublesome sp:lnkle
sugar through a ;small piece of sponge
and leave these about the pantry shelves.
In a short time the ants will be holding
a high carnival. Plunge the sponges in
boiling water and set again.
Wash new glasses for the first time in
cold water; this will give them a bright-
er look than if hat water is used.
Glasses that have been used for milk
should also first be washed in cold water
or they are apt to look cloudy when
dried.

MILBURN'S
HEART AND NERVE
PILLS.
She writes : "It is with gratitude I
tell how your Heart and Nerve Pills
benefitted me.
"I was very weak and run down, had
headaches nearly every day and very
often would faint away, in fact,' my
doctoi said that sometime I -would never
come out of the faint. It was through
one of your travelling agents that I was
induced to try Milburn's Heart and
Nerve Pills and after taking three boxes
I am glad to relate it has been a number
of years since I had a fainting spell and
scarcely aver have a headache. Too
much cannot be said in praise of Mil -
burn's Heart and Nerve Pills, for in me
they have effected a perfect euro."

to have a short rod -sixteen or eigh-i
teen inches long is sufficient, It
should be light and of brass. For set ,
tain work it is desirable to have a,
three-foot rod. As a rule the Iov'l

spraying, though with a strictly first;

cessarily so.

however, do not give a sufficiently;
fine spray to be satisfactory. These
expedients, however, are now sup-
planted by the bucket pump, which
meets the requirements of the garden
and other small operations. Several
different forms are on the market,
made by different manufacturers, and
some of them are very efficient. In
a few eases these pumps are supplied

bucket. but usually the pump is in-
serted into a wooden bucket contain-
ing the spray, as here shown. To do
good work the bucket pump is usual-
ly more easily operated by two per-
sons than by one. With the bucket
pump good pressure can be secured,
and if suitable hose and nozzles are
used results entirely satisfactory are
possible.
The Late Spring.
The delay of the warm winds, in
reaching the Ontario fields, has made
the question of feed on the farm a
very pressing one in many cases. Al-
ready many cattle are turned out to
hunt what little grass they can.
Hay has been a big price all year
and the temptation to sell has been
great. Many tons of bailed hay has
gone out from sections in older On-
tario that has not shipped hay for
years. Millfeeds have all been dear
and grain has sold at a highwater
mark all the season. Consequently
there was no reserve of fodder in
the barns for a late spring. Cattle
will thus go on to the pastures early
and in not too good shape. Many
dairy sections have had to buy feed
and at the high prices prevailing
there has been some excusefor the
higher figures claimed for milk.
The lesson ought to be taken in
its true bearings by the farmer now.
Sincenow is the seeding time and the
preparations should be made to guard
against a similar occurrence next year.
Plant plenty of corn and roots.
There is no better crop for the gen-
uine Ontario farmer than the good
old corn crop. It furnishes a large
amount of feed per acre and when cut
up or put in a silo makes big returns
per acre. Make every acre of ground
tell. Let no land lie idle, but make it
raise the most possible. To do this,
the sower must understand the wants
and nature of his soil. No greenhorn
can get the land to produce at its
maximum.
Again, the successful farmer must
begin to weed out his poor animals -
those that are not thrifty and highly
productive In the dairy is this most'
necessary, so that the profits are not
curtailed by a useless cow Farming
is a wide business and he who would
make it pay must think out his plans
in the light ofmodern knowledge and
execute those plans with a precision
that always wins.
Rheumatism In Horse.
For rheumatism in horse or mule
give a drench of a pint of raw linseed
oil and twenty drops of Croton oil..
When purging is over, give half an
ounce of saltpeter in drinking water:
three times a day. If there is fever,
or the pulse is fast and full, Give 20'
drop dosses of tincture of aconite in
a little water every three hours. Af-'
ter several days, if there is no tin-'
provement, give drain doses of iodide
of potassium three times a day, with'
half ten ounce of wine of colehiemn.
When all fever USE subsided, half ani
ounce of Fowler's solation of arsenic
twice daily is often helpful and is
sometimes the only thing that will
